From Booklist:
Starting with underwear and working up to outwear and even accessories like umbrellas, this title from the Let’s Find Out series takes seriously the task of figuring out how that pair of briefs landed in the dresser drawer. In an assemblage of facts, glossary terms, and bright graphic illustrations, concepts like natural and synthetic fibers, fasteners, and even hemp (cotton’s greener cousin) are explored as wearable options. Questions permeate the book in an effort to encourage readers to think about their own clothing and where it comes from, whether it be rabbit wool or nylon from an oil refinery. Meanwhile, a map helps identify parts of the world where certain fabrics originate. The art, a combination of photos and inviting illustrations of vibrant clothes, breathes life into this charming, informative title. Grades 1-3. --Courtney Jones
From School Library Journal:
Gr 1-3-Just the tickets for inquiring young minds, these perspective-broadening introductions start with familiar activities or items and go on to examine how they work or where they come from. In Playground, for instance, a look at a slide expands into discussions of gravity and friction; and Book touches on writing, illustrating, editing, papermaking, color printing, libraries, Braille, and more. Whew! Along with big, colorful photos or photo-collage illustrations, these volumes are enhanced by extensive glossaries and features ranging from quizzes and science activities to a tempting recipe for chocolate cake. The energetic designs are cheerful and inviting. α(c) Copyright 2011. Library Journals LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc. No redistribution permitted.
